The dataset for this project was provided by the authors of: Ann Intern Med. 2006;145:361-363. This dataset explores longevity in actors and actresses who won academy awards (winners), were only ever nominated (nominees), or were never nominated (controls). This is the same dataset that I have been referring to in the videos. Your job is to analyze these data to test three hypotheses:
• Actors and actresses who win academy awards have better longevity than those who are only ever nominated for an academy award.
• Actors and actresses who win academy awards have better longevity than those who are never nominated for an academy award.
• Actors and actresses who are only ever nominated for an academy award have better longevity than those who are never nominated.
• Test the three main hypotheses in the study in regression models adjusting for potential confounders. Summarize your modeling approach in 100 words or less. In other words, write a short statistical methods section. (5 points for presentation, 10 points for content)
• Create a professional-looking analytic table (similar to a table from a published paper) that presents hazard ratios and confidence intervals from your models in (4). (5 points for presentation, 15 points for content)
